Journal Article
Porter, G., Rink, B., Maskiti, B., Clark, S., & Barber, C. (in press). Young men’s daily mobility needs and practices in two low income neighbourhoods of Cape Town: reflections on first mile experiences, using an innovative community peer research methodology. African Transport Studies,

Understanding how young men navigate their journeys is important in the context of improving safe mobility for all, especially for those resident in city neighbourhoods with high rates of crime and poverty. Over the past decade, knowledge has been a...

Blessed acts of oblivion on the ethics of forgetting (2025)
Journal Article
Heywood, P. (2025). Blessed acts of oblivion on the ethics of forgetting. Cultural Anthropology, 40(1), 105-130

This paper explores the ethics of forgetting as a technology of the self. Forgetfulness is a feature of a range of contexts of political conflict and ‘difficult’ heritage. Such forgetfulness is often imagined as an imposition (as when states deny the... Read More about Blessed acts of oblivion on the ethics of forgetting.

Palaeoenvironments at the Homo erectus type locality of Trinil (Java, Indonesia): the artiodactyl evidence Acknowledgements (2025)
Journal Article
Kovarovic, K., & Gruwier, B. (in press). Palaeoenvironments at the Homo erectus type locality of Trinil (Java, Indonesia): the artiodactyl evidence Acknowledgements. Journal of Human Evolution,

In this study we assess the artiodactyl fossil record of the Homo erectus type locality of Trinil (Indonesia) and explore the paleoenvironmental implications for the site and for our understanding of early hominin paleoecology. Combining ecomorpholog... Read More about Palaeoenvironments at the Homo erectus type locality of Trinil (Java, Indonesia): the artiodactyl evidence Acknowledgements.

Journal Article
Stibbard-Hawkes, D. N. E. (2025). Hominin cognition: The null hypothesis. Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 48, Article e23. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0140525X24001055

The target article explores material culture datasets from three African forager groups. After demonstrating that these modern, contemporary human populations would leave scant evidence of symbolic behaviour or material complexity, it cautioned again...
